INTRODUCTION 

In  the  last  twenty  years  North  Carolina  has  made  a  serious  and 
continuous  effort  to  increase  the  offerings  of  the  public  schools  on  a 
universal  basis  from  the  seventh  grade  up  through  the  high  school.  As 
a  result  of  this  effort  we  have  witnessed  a  phenomenal  growth  in  the 
enrollment  of  the  public  high  schools,  especially  in  the  rural  districts. 
The  constitutional  term  of  six  months  is  not  a  sufficient  basis  to  provide 
the  necessary  elementary  training  for  entrance  upon  high  school  at  a 
reasonable  age.  It  has,  therefore,  been  necessary  in  all  local  communi- 
ties, both  city  and  rural,  to  vote  a  special  tax  to  lengthen  the  school 
term  beyond  six  months  before  undertaking  to  provide  adequate  high 
school  facilities.  Notwithstanding  this  handicap,  more  than  half  of 
the  rural  territory  of  the  State  is  now  included  in  high  school  districts.. 
Forty-five  thousand  boys  and  girls  are  enrolled  in  the  public  high 
schools.  During  this  constructive  period  the  greater  effort  has  been 
given  to  providing  buildings  and  to  securing  funds  for  the  extension  of 
fcthe  term.  The  time  has  now  come,  however,  when  more  attention  can 
be  given  to  the  scientific  organization  of  these  schools  to  the  end  that 
they  may  be  made  more  efficient. 

There  has  been  considerable  criticism  coming  out  from  the  colleges 
that  rural  boys  and  girls  coming  from  these  new  institutions  were 
not  as  well  prepared  for  college  as  students  coming  from  the  city 
schools.  We  should  not  be  surprised  at  this  if  we  take  into  consideration 
the  fact  that  many  pupils  graduating  from  the  high  schools  attended 
elementary  school  for  only  four  or  six  months  in  the  year.  We  should 
take  into  consideration  also  the  fact  that  these  rural  high  schools  are 
new  and  made  up  of  pupils  who  have  not  been  associated  throughout 
the  whole  school  period,  and  for  these  reasons  could  not  reasonably  be 
expected  to  do  as  efficient  work  as  the  older  schools  with  their  accumu- 


4  High  Schools  of  North  Carolina 

lated  traditions  and  standards.  The  efficiency  of  the  rural  high  schools 
is  rapidly  improving,  however,  and  in  the  course  of  a  few  years  we  may 
confidently  expect  a  much  hetter  output  than  we  are  now  receiving. 

This  interest  in  rural  high  school  education  is  made  increasingly 
manifest  in  each  succeeding  year  by  the  addition  of  a  great  number 
of  standard  high  schools.  We  should  remember  at  all  times  that  these 
high  schools  are  set  up  by  the  vote  of  a  majority  of  the  qualified 
electors  in  each  district  and  must,  therefore,  represent  the  common 
will  and  determination  of  these  communities  to  provide  better  edu- 
cational opportunities  for  the  children  belonging  to  them.  This  high 
school  development  is  not  the  result  of  outside  pressure,  but  is  a 
direct  growth  from  within,  being  the  expression  of  the  desire  of  the 
people  in  each  particular  community. 

The  program  of  expansion  is  approximately  half  completed.  There 
are  still  other  rural  boys  and  girls  who  would  gladly  accept  the  high 
school  opportunity  if  it  were  provided  for  them.  This  desire  for  better 
school  facilities  on  the  part  of  the  people  themselves  as  manifested  by 
their  continuous  effort  in  this  direction,  is  a  sign  of  a  healthy  and 
wholesome  educational  spirit  among  the  people  of  the  State. 

This  bulletin  was  prepared  by  Dr.  J'.  Henry  Highsmith,  Director  of 
the  Division  of  School  Inspection.  It  is  hoped  that  it  will  be  of 
service  to  those  communities  already  operating  high  schools  and  an 
inspiration  to  those  who  do  not  yet  have  them. 

State  Superintendent  Public  Instruction. 


EXPLANATORY  NOTE 

This  list  of  high  schools  in  North  Carolina  gives  the  name  of  the 
school  together  with  the  name  of  the  principal  and  the  postoffice 
address  of  the  school.  The  schools  are  listed  alphabetically  by  counties. 
The  name  of  the  county  superintendent  follows  the  name  of  the  county 
iu  each  case  together  with  his  address.  The  schools  are  listed  as 
Special  Charter  or  city  schools,  Rural  schools,  and  Private  schools. 

The  list  contains  the  names  of  686  white  high  schools  and  94  colored 
high  schools,  making  a  total  of  780  schools  in  which  some  high  school 
work  is  being  done.  Of  the  686  white  schools  543  are  accredited.  Of 
the  94  colored  high  schools  49  are  accredited.  There  are  107  special 
charter  white  schools,  and  33  colored.  There  are  546  white  and  25 
colored  rural  schools.     There  are  32  private  colored  schools. 

The  classification  of  all  accredited  schools  is  given.  For  example : 
Alexander- Wilson  in  Alamance  County  is  classified  as  an  accredited 
school,  II,  A.  1924.  This  means  that  the  school  is  an  accredited  school 
in  group  II,  Class  A,  placed  upon  the  list  in  1924.  For  complete 
information  on  classification  of  schools  see  pages  11-14  this  bulletin. 
When  the  classification  of  a  school  is  not  given  it  is  a  non-standard 
school. 

All  Special  Charter  and  Rural  High  Schools  are  public  unless 
otherwise  stated.  Private  schools  are  listed  separately.  Where  the 
name  of  the  principal  is  not  given  it  means  that  the  Preliminary  Report 
for  the  session  1926-27  has  not  been  received.     There  are  few  such  cases. 

All  schools  which  have  been  accredited  for  the  session  1925-26 
together  with  all  schools  previously  accredited  are  included  in  the  list. 
The  list  is  complete,  therefore,  until  the  close  of  the  session  1926-27. 
The  date  of  accrediting  of  schools  in  1920  and  prior  thereto  is  not 
indicated  in  this  list. 


6  High  Schools  of  North  Carolina 

For  the  convenience  of  directors  of  summer  schools  and  college 
authorities  who  admit  students  upon  a  basis  of  graduation  from  standard 
schools  a  list  of  schools  arranged  alphabetically  is  given  in  this  bulletin. 
Persons  who  are  not  familiar  with  the  location  of  schools  in  the 
various  counties  find  it  difficult  to  locate  the  names  of  schools  when 
they  are  given  alphabetically  by  counties.  It  is  hoped  that  this  list 
will  expedite  the  work  of  all  those  who  have  occasion  to  use  the  names 
of  accredited  schools. 

The  high  schools  of  the  State  which  are  members  of  or  accredited 
by  the  Association  of  Colleges  and  Secondary  Schools  of  the  Southern 
States  are  given  in  the  bulletin  both  as  a  recognition  of  these  schools 
and  as  information  for  those  who  may  wish  to  know  the  schools  which 
are  accredited  by  the  Southern  Association. 

The  High  School  Course  of  Study  has  been  revised  and  reprinted. 

Special  attention  is  called  to  the  bulletin,  High  School  Reorganization, 
Educational  Publication  No.  98.  This  bulletin  outlines  the  curriculum, 
suggests  the  organization,  and  shows  a  daily  schedule  for  three,  four, 
five  and  six  teacher  schools.  All  high  school  principals  are  expected 
to  be  thoroughly  familiar  with  the  bulletin,  High  School  Reorganization, 
and  to  use  it  faithfully. 


Director  Division  School  Inspection. 
February  1,  1927. 


STANDARD  HIGH  SCHOOLS 

A  Standard  High  School  as  defined  in  the  State  law  is  as  follows:  "A 
school  term  of  not  less  than  160  days;  four  years  or  grades  beyond  the 
seventh  elementary  grade;  three  teachers  holding  required  certificates;  not 
less  than  forty-five  pupils  in  average  daily  attendance;  a  program  of 
studies  approved  by  the  State  Superintendent  of  Public  Instruction;  such 
equipment  as  may  be  deemed  necessary  by  the  State  Superintendent  of 
Public  Instruction  to  make  the  instruction  beneficial  to  pupils." 

In  the  interpretation  of  this  law  the  following  suggestions  and  require- 
ments are  made  for  the  development  of  a  standard  high  school: 

1.    Teachers 

Every  teacher  employed  in  a  standard  or  accredited  high  school  must  hold 
a  high  school  teacher's  certificate  issued  by  the  Division  of  Certification. 
This  requirement  holds  for  all  classes  of  schools,  public  and  private,  white 
and  colored,  urban  and  rural.  At  least  three  whole  time  teachers  must  be 
employed  in  the  lowest  class  of  standard  school.  These  three  teachers  may 
be  employed  when  the  average  daily  attendance  is  forty-five  pupils;  four 
teachers  may  be  employed  for  an  average  daily  attendance  of  seventy;  five 
teachers  for  an  average  daily  attendance  of  100  pupils,  and  one  additional 
teacher  for  each  additional  thirty  pupils  in  average  daily  attendance. 

2.    Length  of  Term 

The  length  of  term  in  a  Group  II,  Class  B  School,  which  is  the  lowest 
class  of  standard  high  school,  must  be  eight  months  or  160  days,  exclusive 
of  holidays. 

3.    Length  of  Recitation  Periods 

With  an  eight  months  term,  160  days,  recitation  periods  must  be  forty-five 
minutes  in  the  clear  in  order  that  each  course  may  be  120  clock  hours  of 
a  unit  of  work.  In  arranging  a  daily  schedule  provision  should  be  made 
for  at  least  five  minutes  between  recitation  periods  to  allow  for  time  spent 
in  changing  classes.  The  actual  time  spent  in  instruction  during  each 
recitation  period  must  be  forty-five  minutes. 

4.    Fifteen  Standard  Units  Are  Required  for  Graduation 

A  unit  is  defined  as  follows:  A  unit  is  the  credit  allowed  for  the  satis- 
factory completion  of  a  course  pursued  for  thirty-two  weeks  or  more  with 
five  recitation  periods  per  week,  each  recitation  period  being  forty-five 
minutes  in  length.  If  the  term  is  thirty-six  weeks,  recitation  periods  may 
be  forty  minutes  in  length.  A  unit  of  work  is  120  clock  hours.  In  esti- 
mating the  fifteen  units  required  for  graduation  such  subjects  as  Arithmetic 
and  Spelling  should  not  be  considered.  When  Arithmetic  is  offered  in 
the  eighth  grade  credit  may  be  given  toward  graduation  from  any  given 
school,  but  such  credit  will  not  be  accepted  by  colleges  in  meeting  entrance 
requirements. 


High  Schools  of  North  Carolina 


5.    Average  Daily  Attendance 

There  must  be  at  least  forty-five  pupils  in  average  daily  attendance 
in  the  lowest  standard  school.  Such  an  average  attendance  permits  the 
employment  of  three  whole-time  properly  certified  teachers. 

6.    Course  of  Study 

A  four  year  course  of  study  must  be  provided.  This  means  ordinarily 
the  eighth,  ninth,  tenth,  and  eleventh  grades.  In  some  schools  there  are 
twelve  grades  and  in  some  instances  the  eighth  grade  is  regarded  as  a  part 
of  the  junior  high  school.  There  is  nothing  to  prevent  the  organization 
of  a  high  school  on  the  Junior-Senior  basis.  When  an  effort  is  made  to 
organize  on  this  basis  it  is  suggested  that  the  seventh  and  eighth  grades 
be  organized  as  a  junior  high  school  and  the  ninth,  tenth,  and  eleventh 
grades  as  the  senior  high  school.  In  schools  where  there  are  twelve  grades 
it  will  be  more  convenient  to  organize  on  what  is  known  as  the  6-3-3  Plan: 
the  six  year  elementary  school,  a  three  year  junior  high  school,  composed  of 
grades  seven,  eight  and  nine,  and  a  senior  high  school  composed  of  grades 
ten,  eleven  and  twelve.  In  small  high  schools  with  three  or  four  teachers 
and  an  average  daily  attendance  of  forty-five  to  seventy  pupils  it  is  not 
advisable,  perhaps,  to  attempt  to  organize  on  the  Junior-Senior  basis. 

Note:  Every  school  should  be  organized  as  suggested  in  High  School 
Reorganization,  publication  No.  98.  The  Curriculum  adopted  must  conform  to 
the  suggestion  made  for  three,  four,  five  and  six  teacher  schools. 

7.    Equipment 

A.  Library — A  separate  room  with  adequate  furniture  must  be  provided 
for  the  library  which  may  be  used  also  as  a  reading  room.  There  must  be 
in  the  lowest  standard  high  school  at  least  300  volumes  of  distinctively 
high  school  grade.  The  books  in  the  library  should  be  distributed  as 
follows: 

(1)  All  reference  books  and  periodicals  suggested  in  the  high  school 
library  bulletin. 

(2)  Fifty  volumes  of  standard  fiction. 

(3)  Fifty  volumes  of  standard  literature,  in  the  form  of  essays,  orations, 
addresses,  short  stories,  and  dramas. 

(4)  At  least  ten  of  the  books  suggested  on  Agriculture  and  Home 
Economics. 

(5)  Seventy-five  volumes  of  History  and  Biography. 

(6)  Twenty-five  books  on  Georgraphy  and  Travel. 

(7)  Good  editions  of  at  least  twenty-five  of  the  leading  British  and 
American  Poets. 

In  meeting  the  requirements  each  of  the  reference  books  and  periodicals 
may  be  counted  as  one  volume  in  the  300  books  required  for  standard  schools. 

B.  Maps — To  make  the  teaching  effective,  it  is  necessary  not  only  to 
have  good  textbooks,  but  also  to  have  good  apparatus,  such  as  maps,  charts, 
lantern  slides,  pictures,  and  specimens.  The  requirements  for  maps  for 
use  in  connection  with  physical,  general  or  commercial  georgraphy,  general 
science,  history,  and  literature  are  as  follows:

Five  of  the  above  are  required,  but  the  entire  series  should  be  provided 
if  possible. 

B.   BLACKBOARD  OUTLINE  SERIES: 

Five  under  A  above  are  required,  and  eight  or  more  are  recommended. 

c.  political  series: 

At  least  one  set  of  seven  or  eight  maps,  under  A  above,  are  required. 
Also  a  good  map  of  North  Carolina,  and  a  map  of  the  Land  Office,  U.  S. 
Department  of  the  Interior,  showing  the  territorial  expansion  of  the  United 
States. 

d.  historical  series: 

1.  For  English,  History  and  Literature: 

England,  or  the  British  Isles. 

2.  For  Ancient  History  and  Latin: 

Ancient  World,  Roman  Empire,  Ancient  Greece,  Ancient  Italy. 
(This  historical  series  is  recommended,  but  not  required.) 

E.       FOR   MODERN    EUROPEAN    AND    AMERICAN    HISTORY: 

1.  A  good  series  of  charts  for  European  History. 

2.  A  good  series  of  charts  for  American  History. 

(These  charts  are  recommended,  but  not  required.) 
These  requirements   with  reference  to   maps  and   charts   became  effective 
September  1,  1923. 

C.  Laboratory — For  the  teaching  of  Science  there  must  be  at  least  one 
room  set  apart  for  laboratory  work  and  this  room  must  have  the  necessary 
furniture  and  supplies.  At  least  two  sciences  must  be  taught  in  a  standard 
school.  In  the  small  school  these  sciences  or  subjects  should  be  General 
Science  in  the  eighth  grade  and  Biology  in  the  ninth.  In  the  larger  schools 
additional  sciences  may  be  offered. 

In  providing  for  each  science  the  general  apparatus  and  supplies  should 
be  purchased  and  one  individual  set  for  each  two  to  four  students  in  any 
given  class.  In  General  Science  and  Biology  25  to  30  experiments  should 
be  properly  performed  by  each  student  taking  these  subjects. 

D.  High  School  Records  and  Reports — The  high  school  records  are  a 
matter  of  first  rate  importance.  The  high  school  register  should  be  used 
by  the  high  school  teachers  and  the  permanent  high  school  record  card 
furnished  by  the  State  Department  must  be  used.  The  State  Department 
of  Public  Instruction  has  printed  a  sufficient  supply  of  permanent  high 
school  record  cards  to  furnish  the  necessary  cards  for  all  high  schools. 
These  may  be  obtained  from  the  office  of  the  County  Superintendent. 

A  filing  case  should  be  provided  in  each  high  school  for  the  keeping  of- 
high  school  records.     A  filing  cabinet  is  an  essential  part  of  the  equipment 
of  each  high  school  principal's  office. 


10  High  Schools  of  North  Carolina 

The  Preliminary  Report  should  be  submitted  promptly  when  request  is 
made.  This  is  the  report  which  is  to  be  made  shortly  after  the  opening 
of  each  school  session.  The  Annual  Report  should  be  made  immediately 
after  the  close  of  school  and  submitted  promptly.  One  copy  should  be  sent 
to  the  County  Superintendent,  one  to  the  State  High  School  Supervisor, 
and  one  copy  kept  in  the  office  of  the  principal  for  reference.  No  school 
can  be  properly  rated  Until  the  annual  report  is  submitted. 

8.    Required  Subjects 

There  are  some  subjects  so  fundamental  that  they  should  be  required  of 
all  students.  Occasionally  a  student  will  be  found  who  lacks  ability  to 
pursue  successfully  any  given  high  school  subject,  but  the  majority  of  all 
students  will  be  able  to  do  satisfactorily  the  work  required  in  connection 
with  a  few  prescribed  subjects. 

The  following  units  are  required  for  graduation  from  a  standard  school: 

Units 

English 4 

Mathematics  2 

Science  2 

History 2 

*Foreign  Language 2 

9.    Elective  Subjects 

Elective  subjects  are  offered  under  the  Reorganization  Plan  but  students 
should  select  electives  wisely  in  order  to  prevent  smattering. 

It  will  be  noted  that  only  two  units  of  foreign  language  are  required. 
These  units  may  be  offered  in  Latin  or  French  in  small  schools  along  with 
German  and  Spanish  in  larger  schools.  Four  years  or  more  of  a  foreign 
language  should  be  offered  in  certain  types  of  schools.  The  two  required 
units  for  graduation  from  high  school  will  not  meet  college  entrance  re- 
quirements in  every  instance  and  students  desiring  such  credit  should  be 
advised  to  take  perhaps  four  years  of  Latin  and  at  least  two  years  of 
modern  language  if  the  curriculum  adopted  make  it  possible. 

The  two  units  in  Mathematics  should  include  Arithmetic  and  Algebra. 
Students  who  wish  to  complete  college  entrance  requirements  should  take  at 
least  one  and  one  half  years  of  Algebra  and  one  year  of  Plane  Geometry. 
In  the  larger  high  schools  where  Advanced  Algebra  and  Solid  Geometry  are 
offered  as  electives  it  will  be  possible  for  students  to  select  these  courses 
in  contemplation  of  college  entrance. 

Students  who  specialize  in  Vocational  subjects  are  not  required  to  offer 
foreign  language  credits  for  graduation.  If  a  student  takes  four  years  of 
Agriculture  he  is  not  required  to  offer  any  foreign  language  work  in  meeting 
the  requirements  for  graduation.  This  applies  also  to  students  who  take  four 
years  of  Home  Economics.  A  student  who  offers  only  two  years  of  either 
one  of  these  subjects  is  required  to  offer  the  two  units  of  foreign  language 
work  required  for  graduation. 


*  Not   required  of   students    specializing   in    vocational    subjects.

COLLEGE   ENTRANCE   REQUIREMENTS 

The  colleges  in  the  State  differ  somewhat  with  regard  to  credits  or  units 
required  for  entrance  to  college.  The  colleges  have  agreed,  however,  to 
grant  the  following  credits  for  work  done  in  high  school  toward  meeting 
college  entrance  requirements: 

Units 

English 4 

Social  Science,  including  History  and  Civics 4 

Mathematics 4 

Greek  3 

Latin 4.7 

French   3

Expression    5 

It  should  be  kept  in  mind  in  estimating  college  credits  that  a  unit  of 
work  is  120  clock  hours.  A  subject  may  be  given  an  entrance  credit  of 
one  unit  if  the  course  is  pursued  for  a  term  of  thirty-two  weeks,  five  days 
to  the  week,  with  recitation  periods  forty-five  minutes  in  length.  The  same 
credit  may  be  secured  for  a  thirty-six  weeks  term  with  forty-minute  recita- 
tion periods.  If  a  student  knows  what  college  he  expects  to  enter,  he  should 
plan  his  course  to  meet  the  entrance  requirements  of  that  institution.

The  schools  below  those  of  standard  grade  should  be  classified.  The  work 
in  a  school  should  be  so  organized  that  it  can  be  definitely  estimated  just 
what  amount  of  credit  a  pupil  is  entitled  to  for  the  work  he  has  completed. 
There  are  three  classes  of  schools  below  those  of  standard  grade.  These 
constitute  what  will  be  known  as  Group  III  schools,  Classes  A,  B,  and  C. 

Group  III — Class  A. 

This  is  a  three-teacher,  non-standard  high  school. 

A  high  school  may  have  three  whole-time  teachers,  offer  four  years  of 
work,  and  have  a  term  of  thirty-two  weeks,  but  not  be  rated  as  a  standard 
school  because  certain  requirements  have  not  been  met.  Such  a  school  is 
called  a  three-teacher  non-standard  school.  In  such  a  school  every  effort 
should  be  put  forth,  of  course,  to  meet  the  requirements  of  a  standard  or 
accredited  school. 

The  principal  of  a  school  of  this  class  must  hold  at  least  the  High  School 
Teachers'  Certificate,  Class  A.  and  :may  receive  a  salary  of  $1,800  on  a 
basis  of  a  nine  months'  term. 

Group  III— Class  B.    A  Certified  School. 

By  Certified  School  is  meant  the  following: 

1.  Three   years    of    work   beyond    the    elementary    school.      That    is,    the 

work  of  the  eighth,  ninth,  and  tenth  grades,   or  first,   second,   and 
third  years  of  a  high  school. 

2.  A  term  of  thirty-two  weeks,  exclusive  of  holidays. 

3.  Recitation  periods  of  forty-five  minutes  in  length. 

4.  Two  whole-time  teachers,  holding  proper  certificates. 

5.  Laboratory  facilities  for  the  teaching  of  General  Science. 

6.  A  library  of  not  less  than  200  volumes. 

7.  Twelve  units  of  work  completed. 

8.  An  average  daily  attendance  of  thirty  pupils. 

The  principal  of  a  Certified  School  must  hold  at  least  the  High  School 
Teacher's  Certificate,  Class  A,  and  may  receive  a  salary  of  $1,600  on  a 
basis  of  a  nine  months'  term. 

Group  III — Class  C.    A  Recognized  School. 

A  Recognized  School  may  be  defined  as  follows: 

1.  Two  years  of  work  beyond  the  elementary  school.     That  is,  the  work 

of  the   eighth   and  ninth  grades,   or  first  and   second   years  of  high 
school. 

2.  A  term  of  thirty-two  weeks,  exclusive  of  holidays. 

3.  Recitation  period  of  forty-five  minutes  in  length. 

4.  One  whole-time  teacher  holding  proper  certificate. 

5.  Eight  units  of  work  completed. 

6.  Library  of  100  volumes. 

7.  Twenty  pupils  in  average  daily  attendance. 

The  principal  of  a  Recognized  School  must  hold  at  least  the  High  School 
Teacher's  Certificate,  Class  A,  and  may  receive  a  salary  of  $1,500  on  a 
basis  of  a  nine  months'  term. 


14  High  Schools  of  North  Carolina 

High  School  work  should  not  be  undertaken  unless  it  can  be  provided  for 
in  a  somewhat  adequate  manner.  No  school  will  be  recognized  as  a  high 
school  unless  there  is  one  teacher  giving  whole  time  to  high  school  instruc- 
tion. High  school  work  should  not  be  attempted  in  a  school  where  an  ele- 
mentary teacher,  who  should  be  giving  her  whole  time  to  the  elementary 
school,  employs  a  part  of  her  time  in  giving  high  school  instruction.
